Although all this is outdoors,
which is brilliant, I am used to
meeting my friends in the pub

0:22:05

0:22:09

and that's something that
doesn't seem to happen,
or at least not on the same scale.

0:22:09

0:22:14

It had been a full, emotional day -
and they'd had a good glimpse
of the Australian lifestyle.

0:22:14

0:22:19

But...was it worth moving
halfway around the world for?

0:22:19

0:22:24

Based on the lifestyle we've seen
in Australia, our vote goes to...

0:22:24

0:22:29

BOTH: ..Australia.

0:22:30

0:22:32

Keira and Andy had huge concerns
about bringing up a new baby
so far from home.

0:22:37

0:22:41

So they sought reassurance
from some local new parents.

0:22:41

0:22:45

-Hi, I'm Keira.

-Hi - Richard. How are you?

0:22:45

0:22:48

Is this something you
generally do of a weekend?

0:22:48

0:22:51

Most weekends it's here
or it's at the markets.

0:22:51

0:22:54

There's picnics coming up...
It's very family orientated, it's
a wonderful place to bring kids up.

0:22:54

0:22:59

I think that's one of my
main concerns, is coming over
and not meeting anybody.

0:22:59

0:23:05

Everyone's in the same boat.
I've got no family up here.

0:23:05

0:23:08

Your friends become your family.
They become your network.

0:23:08

0:23:12

They help you with babysitting,

0:23:12

0:23:13

with entertaining yourselves
and your children and stuff,
so that's how it works.

0:23:13

0:23:18

They were really nice people,
actually, weren't they?

0:23:18

0:23:20

We were speaking to
the family we met -

0:23:20

0:23:22

they initially started off in
New South Wales, and they've lived
in a lot of places around the world

0:23:22

0:23:28

and they've chose Darwin as a place
to bring up their family

0:23:28

0:23:31

because of the area that it is
and the lifestyle that they have.
I can see why

0:23:31

0:23:36

they've chose to live here.

0:23:36

0:23:37

Spending time around
all those young children

0:23:38

0:23:40

reminded Keira how much
she was missing her niece back home.

0:23:40

0:23:45

Of course I'm thinking about Emily...
I'll start crying!

0:23:45

0:23:49

You all right?

0:23:51

0:23:52

It's really hard. And when...

0:23:52

0:23:55

..when you mention things like

0:23:59

0:24:01

how I'm feeling about Emily

0:24:01

0:24:04

and what it would be like leaving
my sisters, and the baby...

0:24:04

0:24:09

..again it hits home.

0:24:11

0:24:13

Because when I'm here,
what I'm thinking about is
how much THEY'D like it,

0:24:13

0:24:18

and how much Emily would love
doing the things that these
children are doing as well.

0:24:18

0:24:24

-And she won't be here, will she?

-No.

0:24:24

0:24:26

But that for me... It might sound
a bit callous, but that for me is

0:24:26

0:24:31

the reason why we're coming -
because we're coming for OUR child.

0:24:31

0:24:35

We'd love it if
Emily was here as well,

0:24:35

0:24:37

but we've seen the benefit of it,
and we've got to look after our own
child, at the end of the day.

0:24:37

0:24:44

It's still a big if, but if this is
the best thing for our child,

0:24:44

0:24:48

-then that's what we'd
have to do, I think.

-Yeah.

0:24:48

0:24:50

The reality of a move
was starting to hit home.

0:24:50

0:24:53

Based on what we've seen so far
and the social life in Australia,
our vote goes to...

0:24:53

0:24:58

..UK.

0:24:59

0:25:01

I don't know!

0:25:01

0:25:02

I don't know.

0:25:03

0:25:05

Cracks were starting to show.

0:25:07

0:25:09

So far, Andy had been extremely
positive about Australia.
But things were beginning to change.

0:25:09

0:25:15

I think what we've seen today
is encouraging.

0:25:15

0:25:18

But I look at it as the friends we
would be making here, off the bat,
would be kind of thrown together

0:25:18

0:25:24

because we're families and
that's what we've got in common.

0:25:24

0:25:28

It's not what we've got
in common in terms of personalities
and as proper friends.

0:25:28

0:25:32

I voted for the UK on that basis -

0:25:32

0:25:34

because I've got close friends and
I'd like to have a laugh with them.

0:25:34

0:25:37

In 2009, thoughts of leaving
family and friends in the UK

0:25:41

0:25:46

were playing heavily
on both Andy and Keira's minds.

0:25:46

0:25:50

So, to remind them just what
they would be leaving behind,

0:25:50

0:25:53

we showed them some messages
from their loved ones back home.

0:25:53

0:25:57

'Hi, you two.
I hope you've settled in.

0:26:01

0:26:02

'Hi, you two...'

0:26:02

0:26:04

Hope you're having a great time.
We're missing you like crazy.

0:26:04

0:26:08

-Andy's a nice guy...

-You're a nice guy.

0:26:08

0:26:10

He's very clever.
He knows what he wants in life.

0:26:10

0:26:12

At first, I don't think
she liked Andy very much.

0:26:12

0:26:16

He was a little bit cocky...

0:26:16

0:26:18

'I love her very much.
She's a very loving daughter.'

0:26:18

0:26:21

She's a lovely girl.

0:26:21

0:26:23

Yeah, she is.
And she loves Andy very much.

0:26:23

0:26:26

'She's a superb daughter-in-law.'

0:26:26

0:26:28

She really is.
She's like my third daughter.

0:26:28

0:26:31

Keira's my older sister.

0:26:31

0:26:33

There's, erm...

0:26:33

0:26:34

I think there's 18 months
between us, so we're very close.

0:26:34

0:26:37

I don't want her to go -
but I know THEY want to go.

0:26:37

0:26:40

I think the most important thing
is that Keira's now pregnant
and she's about to have a baby,

0:26:40

0:26:45

and it would be very difficult
to see our grandchild
if they were in Australia.

0:26:45

0:26:49

Them not being here with
a grandchild of ours is not something
we would really look forward to.

0:26:49

0:26:57

I think it's going to be ten times
worse now that she's pregnant.

0:26:57

0:27:01

When I was pregnant, she supported
me a lot through the pregnancy -

0:27:01

0:27:04

but we're going to find it
really difficult
knowing that she's so far away

0:27:04

0:27:09

with a little baby that
we want to cuddle, and can't.

0:27:09

0:27:13

'I just think it's a time...
The first year of a child's life,'

0:27:13

0:27:18

I think it's a time
when you need family support.

0:27:18

0:27:20

'Enjoy it. Find out everything
you can about it.'

0:27:20

0:27:24

Whatever they decide is fine by me.

0:27:24

0:27:28

Selfishly, I hope you don't go -
I'll miss you -

0:27:28

0:27:31

'but I really think you SHOULD go
because it's a great opportunity.'

0:27:31

0:27:34

Hi, K. Hi, Andy. Obviously,
you knew what was going to happen.

0:27:34

0:27:37

We hope you have a fab time
in Australia,

0:27:37

0:27:40

but not too much
because we want you like crazy.

0:27:40

0:27:42

I do hope
you'll make the right choice...

0:27:43

0:27:46

WE don't want you to go.

0:27:46

0:27:48

We would rather you stayed here.

0:27:48

0:27:50

We hope that you choose
to come home to your family,

0:27:52

0:27:55

and bring up our grandchild at home
here in sometimes sunny England.

0:27:55

0:28:01

Are you all right, though?

0:28:06

0:28:08

Yeah. I expected it, I...

0:28:08

0:28:11

It's just hard seeing it.

0:28:11

0:28:13

Yeah.

0:28:13

0:28:15

It's nice to see that
there's a lot of support anyway.

0:28:15

0:28:19

Yeah.

0:28:19

0:28:20

-Quite honest, isn't it?

-Yeah.

0:28:21

0:28:23

Your mum and dad were good because
they were honest, weren't they?

0:28:23

0:28:26

I just think... Even when I saw Katie
and Emily then, I started crying.

0:28:26

0:28:31

They didn't have to say anything.

0:28:31

0:28:33

You're starting
to miss them now, aren't you?

0:28:33

0:28:37

Yeah.

0:28:37

0:28:38

-Well, this is the
acid test, isn't it?

-Yeah.

0:28:44

0:28:47

-Harsh!

-Yeah, but, er...

0:28:47

0:28:50

..one thing is, it'll be worse
than this when you're
waiting to get on the plane.

0:28:51

0:28:56

So, you have to take
that into account as well.

0:28:57

0:28:59

-Yeah.

-You might calm yourself
down in five minutes, but, er...

0:28:59

0:29:04

it'll be that a hundredfold
if we make the decision, so...

0:29:04

0:29:09

you have to be sure
you're all right with that.

0:29:09

0:29:12

Well, it was the end
of a long and emotional week
in Darwin for the Roberts.

0:29:21

0:29:25

I do see me and Andy moving
to Australia in the near future.

0:29:25

0:29:28

Andy and Keira loved the experience
and the lifestyle which Australia
offered their expanding family.

0:29:28

0:29:35

The priority is the baby, really.

0:29:35

0:29:37

However, the messages
from their family

0:29:37

0:29:40

came as a stark reminder
of what they'd be leaving behind -

0:29:40

0:29:43

and the difficulty they'd face
raising their first child WITHOUT
the support of their family.

0:29:43

0:29:48

-It's just hard seeing it.

-Yeah.

0:29:49

0:29:52

It had always been Andy's dream
to move to Australia -

0:29:52

0:29:55

but he was worried that it
might prove too much for Keira.

0:29:55

0:30:00

Before we started this little
adventure, it was always going to
be the family that was going to

0:30:00

0:30:04

be the problem, and I think
that's still the case now.

0:30:04

0:30:08

The main thing for me is
how much Keira may have been swept

0:30:08

0:30:11

away by things, and how much
this may have set her back.

0:30:11

0:30:15

Seeing friends

0:30:15

0:30:18

that I've grown up with, and...

0:30:18

0:30:21

family,

0:30:21

0:30:24

it just changes things.

0:30:24

0:30:26

Because the way I'm feeling now,

0:30:28

0:30:30

it would be a constant
if we came out here.

0:30:30

0:30:33

Ultimately, the reason
I'm here is not just for me,

0:30:33

0:30:36

it's for Keira
and for our new family.

0:30:36

0:30:40

The most overriding thing is
for a better life for our kids.

0:30:41

0:30:45

It's a really, really
hard decision to make.

0:30:45

0:30:48

And I don't suppose
until I flip the cards

0:30:50

0:30:53

I'll know which way
I'm going to go.

0:30:53

0:30:55

They had such a positive start
to the week,

0:30:56

0:30:59

but the prospect of leaving friends
and family behind and bringing up

0:30:59

0:31:03

their first child alone had made
this huge decision even harder.

0:31:03

0:31:07

It was crunch time.

0:31:07

0:31:09

Will Keira and Andy
choose a new life down under,

0:31:09

0:31:13

or was there too much
tying them to the UK?

0:31:13

0:31:15

Based on everything we've seen here
in Darwin, our vote goes to...

0:31:15

0:31:19

BOTH: ..UK.

0:31:20

0:31:23

I'm shocked that you voted for UK!

0:31:23

0:31:26

-I know. But there's a
big caveat to that.

-Go on.

0:31:26

0:31:31

That I think Australia is my
long-term vote, without a doubt...

0:31:31

0:31:35

but not having your mum and dad
around when the baby's an infant

0:31:35

0:31:43

I think would be too hard for you.

0:31:43

0:31:45

I absolutely love it here,

0:31:45

0:31:46

but I couldn't do it without
my family and friends.

0:31:46

0:31:49

Having your first child is going
to be hard enough without having

0:31:49

0:31:52

-your mum and my mum and your
sister around you at the time.

-Yeah.

0:31:52

0:31:56

-Yeah.

-Maybe, I think it's a timing issue.

0:31:56

0:32:00

Maybe.

0:32:00

0:32:02

I think at this moment in time,
it's probably just...the wrong time.

0:32:08

0:32:13

For me, I don't think
the book's closed.

0:32:13

0:32:16

I still want to come out here
and I think everything we've seen

0:32:16

0:32:19

just makes me want to come out here
even more, really,

0:32:19

0:32:22

but I think the timing
isn't quite right really.

0:32:22

0:32:25

I think it would be too hard
raising our first child on our own.

0:32:25

0:32:29

Give the child a couple of months
and see how we feel then.

0:32:29

0:32:32

Maybe six months down the line,
we'll feel differently.

0:32:32

0:32:35

I still think it's on the horizon in
the short to medium term, hopefully.

0:32:35

0:32:40

So, in 2009,
the Roberts voted for the UK.

0:32:46

0:32:51

We've caught up with them again -
baby has arrived,

0:32:51

0:32:55

but where are they now
and how are they getting on?

0:32:55

0:32:58

They are still in the UK -
and with the arrival of baby Jack
their family has grown.

0:33:00

0:33:05

A year ago, they both agreed the UK
was right for the time being.

0:33:05

0:33:10

But where do they see their future?

0:33:10

0:33:12

Will they be united
or do they ultimately want to live
in two very different places?

0:33:12

0:33:18

It feels like a lifetime ago
since we were in Australia,

0:33:19

0:33:22

even though it was
just about a year ago.

0:33:22

0:33:26

Um...

0:33:26

0:33:27

So much has changed
and a lot of things have happened.

0:33:27

0:33:30

We've had Jack,
a new addition to our family.

0:33:30

0:33:32

November 17th, Jack was born.

0:33:32

0:33:36

-2009.

-Mm-hm.

-A few months
after we came back from Darwin.

0:33:36

0:33:39

-Things changed a lot then,
didn't they?

-Yeah.

0:33:39

0:33:43

Definitely did.

0:33:43

0:33:44

Yeah, nothing prepares you
for parenthood, I don't think. Um...

0:33:44

0:33:49

Seeing the birth, nothing prepares
you for that either.

0:33:49

0:33:52

That did mess up my head
a little bit.

0:33:52

0:33:55

Still not sleeping properly now,
to be honest, but...

0:33:55

0:33:58

And he wasn't the one
that gave birth.

0:33:58

0:34:00

BABY CRIES

0:34:00

0:34:03

-Shall we go and... Do you want to?

-Yeah, I'll go and get him.

0:34:03

0:34:06

All right, this is
our little baby boy, Jack.

0:34:07

0:34:09

The last time everybody saw him,
he was in the scans.

0:34:09

0:34:13

-He's...

-He still keeps us up at night
every now and again,

0:34:13

0:34:16

but he's generally
very well-tempered.

0:34:16

0:34:18

Be better if he was in Australia,
he'd be more well-behaved
in the sunshine.

0:34:18

0:34:22

-Do you think?

-Yeah.

0:34:22

0:34:23

I think it'd be great for him.

0:34:23

0:34:25

-JACK MOANS

-Do you agree?

0:34:25

0:34:28

I don't think he does.

0:34:28

0:34:29

From first impressions, it seems
Andy is still keen to make a better
life for his family in Australia,

0:34:29

0:34:36

and Keira still has her doubts.

0:34:36

0:34:37

But Jack has become
their top priority.

0:34:37

0:34:41

Not much has changed in the house
over the last 12 months,

0:34:41

0:34:44

cos we've had our hands full
with a little baby, but, um...

0:34:44

0:34:47

soon as we got back from Darwin,

0:34:47

0:34:48

the first thing I did
was sort his little nursery out.

0:34:48

0:34:51

And this is it.

0:34:51

0:34:53

Dab hand at the DIY now.

0:34:53

0:34:55

Yeah. It's a bit blue, but...

0:34:55

0:34:57

HE LAUGHS
What do you expect with a boy?

0:34:57

0:34:59

It's all right.
I'd prefer it to be red.

0:34:59

0:35:02

Jack may have taken over
their lives,

0:35:02

0:35:04

but thoughts of Australia are still
at the forefront of their minds.

0:35:04

0:35:09

I was quite surprised
that I liked it so much.

0:35:11

0:35:16

Um, didn't think I would and...
I really was hoping that I wouldn't.

0:35:16

0:35:21

It's quite big.

0:35:21

0:35:22

It's my ideal...of a home.

0:35:22

0:35:28

I think the life for the baby
would definitely be better here

0:35:28

0:35:31

than it is back at home.

0:35:31

0:35:33

Um, saw the family-and-friends DVD
and was devastated for the whole day.

0:35:33

0:35:38

Cos I don't think you realise...

0:35:38

0:35:40

until you think about it that way,

0:35:40

0:35:42

what you're giving up.

0:35:42

0:35:44

Um, I know it's a fabulous place,

0:35:44

0:35:47

and they've got a lot to offer,
for young families in particular,

0:35:47

0:35:52

but I think family and friends
are a lot more important

0:35:52

0:35:57

-and they play a... They will play
a key role in Jack's upbringing.

-Hmm.

0:35:57

0:36:01

It does bring it home,
the family and friends,

0:36:01

0:36:04

and now I've had the baby,

0:36:04

0:36:06

that family-and-friends network
has been invaluable really.

0:36:06

0:36:10

We've just had him christened,

0:36:10

0:36:12

and 100 people turned up to the
ceremony, so that brings it home -

0:36:12

0:36:15

how important the family
and friends are, really.

0:36:15

0:36:18

But I'm still looking
at the best thing for him,

0:36:18

0:36:20

and I think the best thing
for him is still to be over there,
long-term.

0:36:20

0:36:24

I don't regret going for, um...
For the UK.

0:36:24

0:36:28

But I still want to give it a go
at some point if I can.

0:36:28

0:36:31

I think if I pushed
a little bit too much now,

0:36:31

0:36:33

you'd probably find me with
concrete boots on, wouldn't you?

0:36:33

0:36:37

-SHE LAUGHS

-Don't think they're too keen on me
taking their daughter away,

0:36:37

0:36:40

and the grandson as well now.

0:36:40

0:36:42

Obviously that's made things
a little bit... A bit More...

0:36:42

0:36:45

Iffy, I suppose.

0:36:47

0:36:48

-Iffy!

-Couldn't say
what I was going to say.

0:36:48

0:36:50

Thought better of it.

0:36:53

0:36:55

It's Keira's strong
family ties which, at the moment,

0:36:55

0:36:59

are keeping the Roberts in the UK.

0:36:59

0:37:02

And with their own family growing,
those bonds are even stronger.

0:37:02

0:37:07

Especially those
between grandson and grandmother.

0:37:07

0:37:11

If it was what they wanted to do,
then obviously,
I would have accepted it, but...

0:37:11

0:37:15

I was really, really pleased
when they decided not to go.

0:37:15

0:37:18

It's just too far away.

0:37:18

0:37:20

And I wouldn't have had all these
cuddles with the new baby, would I?

0:37:20

0:37:24

Mum's been a godsend with Jack.

0:37:24

0:37:27

I think it would have been very
difficult to do it without her.

0:37:29

0:37:34

You'd have coped, it just wouldn't
have been the same, I don't think.

0:37:34

0:37:38

-No.

-You know,
cos she is a coper, Keira.

0:37:38

0:37:42

And it just
would have been different.

0:37:42

0:37:45

That's, you know...
that's what it would have been.

0:37:45

0:37:47

She said, if she could
shovel everyone up

0:37:47

0:37:50

and take everybody with her,

0:37:50

0:37:53

so that's what
I'd have to do as well.

0:37:53

0:37:55

We'd have to shovel...
We'd all have to go.

0:37:55

0:37:58

So...

0:37:59

0:38:00

-We could all go, couldn't we?

-Yeah.

0:38:00

0:38:02

But that's the only... I'm really
close to my family as well, so...

0:38:02

0:38:07

And I know it's... It might
sound daft to some people,

0:38:07

0:38:10

you know, letting that impact
on the rest of your life,

0:38:10

0:38:13

but I think family's
really important.

0:38:13

0:38:15

If it was something
that they really wanted to do,

0:38:15

0:38:18

then obviously, you know,
we'd support them in it.

0:38:18

0:38:20

Of course we would.

0:38:20

0:38:21

We'd just cry
the whole time they were there.

0:38:21

0:38:24

With baby Jack's arrival,

0:38:26

0:38:28

Keira has come to truly appreciate
the invaluable help

0:38:28

0:38:31

and support of her family.

0:38:31

0:38:33

If the Roberts are ever to start
a new life in Australia,

0:38:33

0:38:36

Andy once again has his work cut out
persuading Keira to make the move.

0:38:36

0:38:41

You do realise that you can't
be forcing things onto her

0:38:41

0:38:46

and you do realise
that you've got to...

0:38:46

0:38:48

You know, you're in a marriage,
you've got to share and share alike.

0:38:48

0:38:51

He's, you know...he's my husband
and he's there to support me, so...

0:38:51

0:38:55

Um...

0:38:55

0:38:56

Although he was probably
disappointed, yeah.

0:38:56

0:38:58

Um...

0:38:58

0:39:00

He understands
the reasoning behind it.

0:39:00

0:39:03

I was disappointed,
very disappointed really,

0:39:05

0:39:08

that it was something
we weren't going to end up doing,

0:39:08

0:39:11

but it wasn't unexpected.

0:39:11

0:39:12

So...

0:39:12

0:39:14

I wasn't gutted
and I don't think I regret it,

0:39:14

0:39:16

the fact that we're not
over there now, but...

0:39:16

0:39:19

it's still something I'd like to do.

0:39:19

0:39:20

He talks about Australia a lot.

0:39:20

0:39:22

Yeah, um...

0:39:23

0:39:25

When it's a bit dull outside or...

0:39:25

0:39:27

when we're doing something,
he's says things like,

0:39:27

0:39:32

"Well, if it was in Australia
it wouldn't be raining," or...

0:39:32

0:39:36

Just little sly digs. Quite...
quite a lot of the time.

0:39:36

0:39:40

Generations of my family have been
within a radius of five miles,

0:39:40

0:39:43

and I always thought it was
a bit depressing, to be honest.

0:39:43

0:39:46

There's a big world out there,
and you've got to go out

0:39:46

0:39:49

and experience as much as you can
before you don't have a chance to.

0:39:49

0:39:52

I'd still, even in the future, I'd
need that support to come with me.

0:39:52

0:39:58

I couldn't just do it
with me and Andy on our own.

0:39:58

0:40:02

You do only get one chance
in life and...

0:40:02

0:40:05

I don't want to look back
on my life when I'm on my deathbed

0:40:05

0:40:08

and think, "I could have done that
and didn't."

0:40:08

0:40:11

Um...

0:40:11

0:40:12

And that bothers me more than
anything else, really.

0:40:12

0:40:15

This moment in time,
I'm just really enjoying Jack

0:40:15

0:40:19

and where we're at
at this moment in our life,

0:40:19

0:40:23

and, um...

0:40:23

0:40:24

That's what I'm thinking about
at the moment,

0:40:24

0:40:27

and maybe Australia
can come in the future.

0:40:27

0:40:30

Um...

0:40:30

0:40:31

Maybe it won't.

0:40:31

0:40:32

I don't know. It's something we
really need to talk about further
down the line, I think.

0:40:32

0:40:36

Keira seems certain that she could
not make the move down under

0:40:36

0:40:40

without her family,

0:40:40

0:40:41

but Andy's mind is still full
of ideas of emigration.

0:40:41

0:40:44

When it comes
to making their final vote,

0:40:44

0:40:47

which way will they go?

0:40:47

0:40:49

I really loved Australia and...

0:40:50

0:40:54

you know, in the long-run,
I would like to move over there.

0:40:54

0:40:58

But based on, um... Well, knowing
that my family and friends...

0:40:58

0:41:02

I couldn't just shovel them up
and take them with me,

0:41:02

0:41:06

my vote goes to the UK.

0:41:06

0:41:08

ANDY INHALES

0:41:08

0:41:10

As Keira says, a lot of things have
changed over the last 12 months.

0:41:10

0:41:15

And it puts a lot of focus on
family, having a new baby boy.

0:41:15

0:41:19

Um...

0:41:19

0:41:20

But my ambition to go
to Australia still remains though.

0:41:20

0:41:24

But, um, I'm more happy

0:41:24

0:41:27

with the fact that we are in the UK.

0:41:27

0:41:29

But having said that,
I'm going to go for...

0:41:31

0:41:33

Australia.

0:41:33

0:41:35

SHE GIGGLES

0:41:35

0:41:37

I knew you'd do that.

0:41:37

0:41:38

The thing is,
it's where you would like to be.

0:41:38

0:41:41

And it's where you would like
to be in the future,

0:41:41

0:41:44

is why I voted for Australia.

0:41:44

0:41:45

When I voted the UK originally,

0:41:45

0:41:47

that was because I knew it was
too hard for Keira at that time.

0:41:47

0:41:51

So it was a vote
at that specific moment in time.

0:41:51

0:41:55

But I would still like
to go over there.

0:41:55

0:41:57

It's not the end of the rainbow,
by any means.

0:41:57

0:42:00

It's not what a lot
of people make out, but...

0:42:00

0:42:02

I'd still like to be there.

0:42:02

0:42:04

But having said that,

0:42:04

0:42:05

I am happy to be here, I'm not
gutted that we're not there.

0:42:05

0:42:09

But I still harbour some dreams.

0:42:09

0:42:12

I'm just glad
that Andy's understanding

0:42:12

0:42:16

and know exactly
where my thoughts are.

0:42:16

0:42:20

And knows why, um...

0:42:20

0:42:23

You know, what's holding me back.
I would go there

0:42:23

0:42:27

if other people agreed
to go there with me.

0:42:27

0:42:31

So I'm not going
to budge on that one.

0:42:31

0:42:33

It's amazing how you'll follow
your brothers and sisters,

0:42:33

0:42:36

but you won't follow your husband.

0:42:36

0:42:38

The Roberts have not yet
made the move to Australia,

0:42:41

0:42:44

and it seems their dream
is on hold for the time being.

0:42:44

0:42:49

The arrival of baby Jack

0:42:49

0:42:50

might just be enough
of a life-altering change for now.
